The starting point is not too far from Evanston, as you can see on the road map further down. The nature scenery of Utah and the beautiful way the water current moves down the stream are reasons enough to come here and paddle. Getting a good workout

and just being out on the river for a while will make you glad you came. The nearby hotels are a bit away from the river, but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick. Whitewater paddling here in

the Uinta Mountains is a great experience. And of course, there are campgrounds nearby. If you've been whitewater rafting and kayaking outside this state you might find the rivers here a bit more forgiving, so better not forget that quite a few of the sections in this state are pretty easy. Whether you're whitewater rafting or kayaking this area has a pretty small number of paddling places. This section is long enough to enjoy a good non

stop paddle, you can easily run it on an afternoon. The Guard station off US 150 to Hewinta Guard Station section is one of a few paddling sections in this river system.
